In 2024, Toei Animation Inc. reported total carbon emissions of approximately 1,200,000,000 kg CO2e, with emissions distributed across various scopes: 7,882,000 kg CO2e (Scope 1), 41,558,000 kg CO2e (Scope 2), and 1,202,209,000 kg CO2e (Scope 3). The Scope 3 emissions include significant contributions from purchased goods and services (636,698,000 kg CO2e) and end-of-life treatment of sold products (415,664,000 kg CO2e). Comparatively, in 2023, the company recorded total emissions of about 1,091,255,000 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 emissions at 6,131,000 kg CO2e and Scope 2 at 49,272,000 kg CO2e. This indicates a slight increase in overall emissions year-on-year, particularly in Scope 3 categories. Toei Animation has not set specific reduction targets or initiatives as part of the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or other climate pledges. The absence of documented reduction strategies suggests a need for enhanced climate commitments within the animation industry context. The company’s emissions data is not cascaded from any parent organisation, indicating that these figures are independently reported. Overall, Toei Animation Inc. faces challenges in managing its carbon footprint, particularly in Scope 3 emissions, which represent the majority of its total emissions.
